Mountainbiking

The region is perhaps most famous for the Tauern Cycle Path, which begins in the Pinzgau and ends, 330 km later, in Passau. The Krimml Waterfalls are the starting point of this family-friendly route – the falls are the tallest in Central Europe and are located about 30 km west of Mittersill. The path takes us along the banks of the Salzach, past numerous natural monuments and sights, all of which are definitely well worth a detour and fill the ride with new and exciting experiences.www.tauernradweg.com

Mountain-Bike Tours

Mountain bikers can choose form around 100 different tours, or sit down with the pros to plot their own individually tailored route. There is so much to discover: in the breathtaking beautiful National Park valleys amid the Hohe Tauern mountains, or in the Kitzbühel Alps. Traditional mountain inns, trail rides, wild gorges, waterfalls and countless meters of climbs and drops – on the way out to one of the impressive high valleys or, for the hardest-nosed bikers of all, to the very mountaintops themselves. The wonderful views are more than ample reward.
